Will you be gifting roses for Mother’s Day this Sunday? 🌹 Like many mothers and mother figures, this hybrid tea rose plant is known for its remarkable strength and beauty. It was crossbred to be healthy, disease-resistant, and virtually free of thorns. Plant photo: @UofMaryland

With 71,000+ miles of gravel roads in Iowa, this 3D-printed geogrid is designed to improve maintenance and longevity of county roads. The innovative solution – designed by an @IowaStateU engineering student – could save counties time and money.

🥳 Happy 100th anniversary to ABI member @ipmvs 🥂🎉 Check out some of the milestones that contributed to the Intellectual Property law firm's success over the past 10 decades. ⬇
One hundred years ago today McKee, Voorhees & Sease began operation in an office in downtown Des Moines. Today, we are Iowa's largest boutique intellectual property law firm serving clients in 160 countries.
Our 26 attorneys stand on the shoulders of founder Talbert Dick; named partners Bruce W. McKee (MVS Tenure: 1964-2023), Michael G. Voorhees (MVS Tenure: 1970-2012), and Edmund J. Sease (MVS Tenure: 1973-2022); and many others vital to protecting innovators.
In 1985, Pat Sweeney, one of the first female patent attorneys in Iowa, began practicing as a patent attorney at McKee, Voorhees & Sease. As a firm with fifty percent women partners, we are proud to continue contributing to the progress of women in the law and intellectual property law.
Over ten decades we have protected the ideas of inventors who started in their garages to multi-national conglomerates. McKee, Voorhees & Sease is proud of its past and looks forward to the future of innovation.

It is truly an honor to collaborate with these esteemed institutions. Each project brings a fresh learning opportunity, akin to being back in college, especially when working alongside researchers. #MVS100
